Odd question I thought, but anyway I voted NO not sure why anyone would wish this project to fail... :)

Precisely. You'd have to be pretty mean-spirited to want someone's hard efforts to bring hardware to the market to be in vain.


I honestly don't think anyone here is "mean-spirited" enough to want any company to fail or their work to be in vain. I think it's just folks expressing their opinions on things and the way some of these companies go about promoting their products... :)

I bet many folk probably think I want CUSA to fail, but I've said it before I don't wish them any harm in their business venture, I just wish they would go about the naming of their products a bit better... :)

Heck my first post on their FaceBook page was this and I got ruddy well banned because of it... :(

I don't wish to see CUSAs demise I just wish they would make it clear to potential purchasers that these are nothing more than a PC running an emulator in a customised case. CUSA are using the brand names to lure folk into buying what they believe will be genuine original Commodore built machines which they are not (ie: they do not contain in any manner the original Amiga or C64 custom chip sets).

@ Karlos

Can't you change the poll thingy so that in future it's not longer just an option to see who voted for what, that way the culprits will be exposed for being such rotters...

(Posted this one in the wrong thread any chance you can remove it from the other thread... :))

Huh?


When a you start a poll you have the option to make the voters names show up in the poll, so instead of being optional can't it be made so that whatever a person votes on their name shows up beside their chosen vote... simples... :)

No, why would anyone want to fail at something especially if its their passion and they stand to loose money.  
 
You would have to be some sort of prick to wish that


Sorry JJ, couldn't resist after I found this wee link... :roflmao:

Lets not play the demonization hand of those who voted against your wishes.  Perhaps it's time for you to open a dialog on why they view things in such a manner instead of attempting to censor their POV by demonizing them?

And no, I did not vote as I did not see a pancakes option!


Wowsers....:eek:

Randy, Randy, dear dear Randy... that's a bit rich coming from someone who agrees with CUSA that because some folks points of view on FaceBook doesn't match CUSAs viewpoint it's fine to censor those folk by deleting their POVs without any decency to respond to them... :rolleyes:

and who likes to go about airing totally absurd reasons why he doesn't think someone has only been on the internet since last June, kinda one rule for you and different rules for everyone else... eh... ;)
